TRD/ Magnuson 4.0 Supercharger Tips, Tricks, and Mods

Yes, because it sounds like you wanna have fun with your truck. And bullydog sucks.

 

Should I plan on immediately getting it on a dyno with some hp tuning software?

 

There is a base tune available that a couple guys can get you set up with I believe with hptuners

 

I kept my stock tensioner as well just in case but I don't anticipate ever having to swap back again.

The short answer is yes. The long answer is that it'll cost you more than 6K. Lol.

 

What's your defintion of "fast enough to put you in a happy mood"?

The 4.88 + blower with 2.8 will have off the line acceleration plus nice top end pull.

But if youre use to the acceleration of a Tesla S and the top end of a big single turbo'ed car... you probably wont even break a grin with 6k spent on a maggy blower....you might even have a frowny face.

 

Im doing head gaskets and full timing kit at the same time so im going to be at 7k right off the bat. Im just curious if the magnuson kit is really able to install and without any extra tuning; be drivable for a few months until i can get it on a dyno to ACTUALLY check afr

 

Also is a 2.8 pulley able to be installed without any extra tuning? As in I take stock pulley off immediately?

 

No need dyno. Ditch the bullydog. Send your ECU to @JustDSM et. Al and have them flash you a base program for the blower.

 

a 2.7 pulley with the TRD s/c tune was geat on mine. at C- level to 1000k was my elevation.

 

Yes... i have never used the stock 3.0 pulley. And the trd blower tune was broad enough for the 2.8".

 

the trd s/c tuning is rich. rich af. a notch down on pulley is a good deal.

 

Does the maggy kit come with injectors?

 

should...i think. i dunno. 355 orange ones i know i had.

 

Exactly. What these guys said Ivan.

It does. 455cc orange/ yellow Denso TRD Injectors

 

Thanks everyone! You have all moved me one step closer to being broke again!

 

That's what we're here for. Improve, destroy, rebuild, and improve even more.

 

Sure Tesla's are fast, but remember, Tesla's are for women.

 

But have you seen the grind hard plumbing one?

 

They look awesome, but they just sound golf carty. I just can't get past that. Sure 0-60 in -1.5 seconds, but wirrrrrrrrrr!!!!!

Hahaha.

 

More like ryyyyyyyyyyn well, that's what my electric leaf blower sounds like
